This invention is a novel combination holder for used safety razorblades and paper for wipingsuch blades, and its object is to provide anovel andrconvenient device for holding paper wipers for razor blades,"or.

toilet paper, and a receptacle for usedsafety jured thereby. r

The accompanying drawings illustrate a practical embodiment of theinvention, and

We will describe the v same with reference thereto, and-summarize in theclaims the 7 Figure2 is a perspective rear view of the 7 cover of suchholder, detached.

Figure 3 ing of such holder with cover removed.

. Figure 4- is a vertical sectional view of the holder inoperativeposition in awall.

As shown in the drawings the holder comprises a hollow member or casingclosed 'at front and referabl lltLVlIl aninternal paper compartment anda used blade receiver compartment; a closure forthe casing andcompartment; and a used blade receiver as hereinafter explained. Theseveral parts may be made of any suitable material,"

but in the particular form shownthefparts are supposed to be cast ormolded; although they may also be made of sheet metal.

The combinationholder as shown inthe drawings is especially useful forso called built-in work; and con'iprises a rectangular casing 10, beingpreferablyclosed at rear, top. bottom and ends but open at the front,said casing being adapted to beset into a wall S, of a room or the like,with the open side outermost, and'flus'h with the exterior surface ofthe.wall.- The interior of the casing 10 is preferably divided by a"vertical partition 10a into a large compartment A adapted to containpaper wiper sheet-s W, and a smaller compartment B- adapted to containused blades.

' lifting the closure until the engaged fromslots 10b;

is a perspective view of the. casl i eat'lyi l s he'epnins in the m ofthe'casing'ld and is shown as sprovided' with flanges lldtooverla'pand'co ver the outer edges of the top,bottom and end walls of thecasing.

V The coverjmay be detachably attached to the-casing 10 by any desirablemeans in the particular "construction illustrated. "in I the drawingsthe closure 11 is provided at its opposite ends with pins lle'whichareadapted:

to engage areuate slots {10b in the inner surface of the end walls ofthe-casing 10;. when theclosure is properly positioned the pins 1'16enterthearcuate slots 10?) and draw the is V closure 11 towards thecasing 101andret'ain closure in place The closure '11 can be removedby'inserting the "fingers'in' slot- 11a and V This closure 11 isprovlded with azs lot 11a through which paper wipers may be removed 1 Ifrom the compartment A; and with a small slot 11?) aboveand to one sideof the slot 11a, I

through which used razor blades may be -in.v serted into the compartmentB, or into a suit able 'bladerecei'ver in said compartment, In theconstruction shown a blade receiver 110 is attached to or preferablymolded on the inner face of the closure 11 beneaththe slot 11?), so thatthe used razorlblad'es in.-

serted through slot'llb will fall intothe re ceiver 11c and be retainedtherein.

The receiver 11c might in some instances be made separate from theclosure 11,, and

detachably attached thereto or.removably placed within the bladecompartment B. The

construction ishown the simplest and-the at present preferred for-111..hen it is de' 'sired'to empty the used blades the closurell can beremoved, thereby removing the used blade recelver with it, and the usedbladescan be emptied Where it may be desired to finally dispose ofthem.I We claim:

- 1. A holder for used razor blades comprising a hollow casing adaptedfor insertion in a wall pocket and open at the front side a plateforming a closure for the open front side of V the casing, and providedWith a'blade receiving slot; :1. blade receiver attached to the said a.plate forming a. closure for the ppen lro lt sldefof theeasing lievmgluge on its ends cletachably en agm'g said 'arc'uziteslots 'and having ablade receiving slot; and a blade receiver attached to the said:closureplate-beneaththe said blade receiving slot; L
